    Oh joy. Another foreigner criticizing America. From a country that doesn’t even have Mother’s Day.

    And not even doing a half decent job of ctiticizing America, either. Basically, it sounds like a lame middle-school essay on the history of Mothers Day with a couple sentences near the beginning stating it has been destroyed by consumerism. No supporting info, no expanding upon the argument, nothing.

    If I were a 7th grade social science or history teacher grading this as a paper I’d give it a C, and that’s being charitable.
